Duality; we are vast beings within this human shell. We are expansive beyond measure. We are beings capable of so much yet can be held back with so little. Society boxes us into being just one thing for most of our lives. For some people, that works well but not for me. I am a vast expansive Universe of creative energy. Free and weird. Don’t mask me with what you think I should be. Let me be free and let my passions collide. I am more than one thing. I am multiple things. I have multiple loves. I want multiple ways and I will not rest until I am okay with that.

Twelve a Year JANUARY

 

I woke up not knowing where to go for how I wanted to portray my photo project. I thought of driving to the beach, mountains, and forest. I decided to go back to a forest I hadn't visited from when I first found it. I ended up climbing up the wrong hillside since the memory markers were from three years ago. When I finally found it, I felt in awe just as the very first time. This place is a hidden secret I stumbled upon and you can only find it if you take the path less traveled. Sometimes you need to go off course in order to find what you never knew you were looking for. It will sometimes find you instead.

Poor Harold was robbed of everything while he was taking a shower in his RV, all his clothes and belongings gone. The only things they left was 6 cameras and a bucket of silver paint.

That moment

that call

that voice

those words

I hold my breath

close my eyes

try to shut it out

But that voice

unyieldingly keeps talking

asking me, ”do you understand?”

and I give up

gasp for air

heart pounding

taking it in

every syllable

crystal clear

piercing my heart

word after word

That moment

relentlessly returning

dimming each day

drilling through the darkness of the night

Twilight,

neverending

one moment in time

Elegant twins in stunning black outfits pose against a floral backdrop in a luxurious setting

 

Two elegant women stand confidently in coordinating black outfits, showcasing intricate designs. They pose against a vivid floral backdrop, exuding glamour and sophistication.

 

"Mirrors in Bloom"

 

In the hush of a summer garden,

where red roses spill their velvet secrets,

two figures stand—

twin reflections of elegance,

draped in black like midnight’s own couture.

 

Their gowns, intricate as whispered vows,

trace the language of design

in every seam and shimmer.

Gold-threaded accessories catch the light,

a constellation scattered across silk.

 

Behind them, a floral backdrop bursts—

vivid colors in full celebration,

petals framing their poise

like a painter’s final, perfect stroke.

 

They pose with the ease of those

who know the power of presence—

chic silhouettes carved against

a riot of summer bloom.

Confidence is their shared crown,

grace their unspoken bond.

 

The air hums with modernity and memory,

luxury and life intertwined.

They are not merely dressed—

they are *composed*,

each detail a note in a symphony

of style, charm, and self-expression.

 

In this moment,

the world sees not just two women,

but a singular vision—

mirrored beauty,

framed in flowers,

etched in the language of high fashion.

  

Step into a celebration of love, diversity, and self-expression with a vibrant Pride-inspired editorial. This colorful duo showcases the spirit of the Swank Pride Hunt, where fashion becomes a statement of acceptance, individuality, and joy. From rainbow accents to sparkling accessories, every detail reflects the beauty of living authentically and embracing every color of the spectrum.

I am a big fan of D.Gray Man's manga work, and I took Teez as inspiration to take these pictures. Teez is a golem that feeds on human organs, and only when they call him back, the host realize that has it.

I’m deeply grateful to the entire Flickr community

 

Not many people know this, but my very first Flickr profile was created back in 2005. This year, I’m celebrating 20 years with Flickr. Later on, I made a mistake and deleted that original profile, and in 2008 I created a new one — which is why my account shows 2008 as the start date, even though my journey really began in 2005.

 

Thank you to everyone who has stayed with me all these years. Thank you for not forgetting me, for growing together with me, and for witnessing how I continue to evolve in different directions. Over time, I’ve created my YouTube channel, Patreon, and Instagram, and this journey keeps expanding.

 

There were also moments when some people tried to impersonate me, which was very upsetting — but I’m truly happy that this situation has been resolved.

 

Looking ahead to next year, I’m searching for someone who could help me with social media management. If anyone would like to support me, have access to my social platforms, help with content, ideas, or publishing — I would be very grateful.

 

I wish all of you a wonderful 2026, a warm celebration, and beautiful moments with your families.

Please stay with me, follow and support my work. It’s such a joy to see so many new cross-dressers joining the community.

 

I always read your comments on Flickr — it’s very comfortable for me to give feedback there. And if you write to me on YouTube or Instagram, I always reply.

 

Kisses and hugs

See you in the New Year ✨

Twelve a Year FEBRUARY

 

Year of the Ox!

What sets you free? How will you create from a place of pure “youness”?

(Full blog: www.photographythrive.com/roses-for-the-dead/";

 

I am so grateful to Mrs. Death (as weird as that sounds) because the project of bringing her to life has – in its own way – set me free. There was something so incredibly liberating out of creating with a set prop and just letting your imagination run 100% completely wild. The best part is that I set aside my personal fears of judgement, tucked my head down and just created. At four images so far, Mrs. Death has taken a life of her own. She is dramatic, quirky, slightly humorous and caring. Just because she comes for those who are dying does not mean that she does not honor or respect the dead.

 

“Roses for the Dead” was created from a place of honoring those who’ve died and especially those who have passed with no one to mourn them. Mrs. Death comes to seek the dead with a red rose to honor their human lives.

 

I hope to be able to continue this project throughout the year. As a little girl, I have always had an interest in skulls and skeletons. I am grateful that my Mom never tried to change my interests or make me feel like something was wrong with me. Later on, I was judged for wearing my skeleton hoodie in July – someone walked up to me and told me that it wasn’t Halloween yet with a tone of slight disgust. I’ve never truly cared about such things but this person caught me during a vulnerable moment where that comment was like a seed planted in my heart. Basically, it was not okay to be 100% me – just the part that doesn’t weird people out is ok. Well, I am here to tell you (five or so years later) that being 100% me is the best feeling in this world and Mrs. Death has shown that to me.

 

Be free, be weird and most importantly be fiercely you because no one out there will ever come close.

I find that I don't take a lot of photos in my underwear. On one hand, it feels too revealing for a more casual setting, especially since the underwear tend to reveal the contours of what's underneath. So I opt for just a shirtless photo. But in a setting where it's expected for me to show my body, an underwear photo feels underwhelming when I could just be naked. I suppose I should just share these photos more in both settings. I value being authentic and vulnerable, and presenting myself in nothing but underwear can be a relatively safe yet poignant way to do that.

Nights in red satin

Never reaching the end

Letters Ive written

Never meaning to send..

  

Night in red satin.. how could I ever forget.

  

Confident woman in a stylish black leather jacket poses against a dramatic swirling background

 

A striking woman with long, flowing red hair stands confidently in a black leather jacket and dramatic red skirt. The swirling background adds a bold artistic touch to the scene.

 

"Storm in Scarlet"

 

She stands where the wind is made of color,

where the air itself swirls in painted motion—

a living canvas of bold defiance.

 

Red hair, a banner of fire,

streams over the black sheen of leather,

its edges catching the light like a promise.

 

The skirt—scarlet as a heartbeat—

cuts through the storm behind her,

a flash of passion against the chaos.

 

Her gaze is unshaken,

a steady flame in the vortex,

owning the space as if it were built for her alone.

 

Every line of her stance speaks

in the language of confidence—

hips squared, shoulders back,

the world bending subtly toward her gravity.

 

She is fashion and force,

art and attitude,

a portrait of modern glamour

wrapped in the electricity of self-expression.

 

In this moment,

she is not just part of the scene—

she *is* the scene,

the storm’s center,

the reason the colors move at all.
